CALL HER DADDY
Your looks became a huge topic of conversation in your career. This is so crazy that this used to worst. Because no it's like, what in the fuck? But we when they had the ranked Maxim 100 list, hottest 100, and I was number one, I remember my publicist called me and said, you're number one. Do you wanna accept it? And because you can, like, say no, I guess. If you accept it, then then they'll do this cover shoot, and they'll do a piece about it. And I remember being like, I understand that this is the most fucked up thing in the worse, but the part of me that felt like the girl who didn't fit in from high school, the girl who never felt like I fit those standards, who felt awkward and wrong in every way. I know that part of me was like, really? Like, you want me? I I fit it no, and I it took me many years to understand and to unravel that. It's a dangerous thing to suddenly be told, like, no.
